Research carried out within the 3D Earth project, where an international group of geoscientists joined forces to develop a state-of-the art global model of the lithosphere, gives us a better understanding of the natural processes that are occurring deep below our feet. This might bring the possibility of predicting eruptions – such as the astonishing …
Tim is currently a research fellow working within the National Centre for Earth Observation (NCEO) based at the University of Leicester. In addition to his research role, he also co-chairs the international GEWEX Water Vapour Assessment (G-VAP) working group. Output from this group features in the Sixth Assessment Report (AR6) the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate …
POSEIDON aims to understand the response of ocean ecosystems to climate warming and extreme events (e.g., marine heatwaves). Long-term trends (> 23 years) in phytoplankton ecological indicators (biomass, size structure and phenology) will be analysed in different regions, encompassing a range of conditions found in the global oceans. POSEIDON will further investigate the spatiotemporal variability …
John studied Marine Biology and Oceanography at the University of Plymouth (United Kingdom) (2011 – 2015). During his time in Plymouth, he completed a one-year internship as a research assistant at Plymouth Marine Laboratory, where he developed a keen interest in ocean colour remote sensing and its applications for biological oceanography. Between 2015 and 2021, …
ESA, together with PML and support from NASA, is organising an Ocean Carbon From Space Workshop, to be held virtually from 14 to 18 February 2022. This workshop is being organised as the second workshop in the CLEO (Colour and Light in the ocean from Earth Observations) Series and is a contribution to the Committee …
Living Planet Fellowship research project carried out by Romy Schlögel. Within this project we intend to analyse ground deformation hazards induced by meteorological changes and seismotectonic conditions in eastern Belgium, western Germany and the south-eastern Netherlands. Thus, its outcomes should also be of interest for the ongoing Interreg project Einstein Telescope EMR Site & Technology (E-TEST). Focus …
“I want to express my gratitude to the LFP programme and my managers in particular. The kind support I have received during these 24 months has been fundamental to the success of PYROPLANKTON in a particularly complex period at home regarding the work-family balance. I also strongly appreciate the programme’s genuine interest in supporting fundamental …
Penelope is a data scientist at the Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland (GEUS) with a background in Glaciology. She graduated from Lancaster University with a first-class bachelor degree in Physical Geography in 2012, before undertaking an MSc (by research) examining geothermal controls on ice flow at a glacier in Iceland. Following this, she pursued …
A special collection of papers examining the physical, biogeochemical and ecosystem changes related to permafrost thaw and the associated impacts has been recently featured on the Nature Reviews Earth & Environment journal. One of the papers in the collection, describing how scientists from Europe and the US are working together to better track permafrost carbon …
Over the last decades, greenhouse gases and aerosol concentrations have been increasing in the atmosphere, disrupting the balance in the Earth system between incoming and outgoing radiation fluxes. Part of the outgoing longwave radiation being blocked, the system has reemitted less energy towards space than it has received from the Sun. This imbalance at the …
